Newbie on the forums - I just got the Bodyguard 380, and I want a high-ride belt holster, a paddle holster, and a shoulder holster. Anyone know of any sources yet?

Bodyguard 380 Holster
I just bought my Bodyguard 380 and contacted K&D Holsters and got this back from Kevin.
Hi:

Regards,

I have owned 3 of Kevin's holsters and they are great holsters.

couple of holsters
Thanks Goffman and speedy!
I found that DeSantis offers some holsters here http://www.desantisholster.com/storefrontB2CWEB/browse.do?action=refresh_browse&ctg_id=123593 I ordered a belt holster Monday and had it on Thursday.
Also Uncle Mike's Super Belt Slide Holsters in size 0 will fit. It is here http://www.uncle-mikes.com/products/super_belt_slide_holsters.html

I know this is an older topic but I've just completed this prototype pancake for the BG380. Since this is a protype I used a part of the hide that I normally wouldn't and I didn't spend much time on my edges and other details. I'll be doing an IWB next and will be getting someone to help me with testing.

I purchased a leather belt holster for my BG380 from Michael Kole Designs. He is at many gun shows and has a website. He has the BG380 holster in stock. Exceptional quality, protection, and fit. Check it out.

I am picking up a BG 380 next monday and I am looking for a holster. Does anyone have personal experience with the BG 380 holster sold by S&W? Smith does not show the back of the holster. Can someone decribe how it attaches to a belt? I don't see any slots in the leather. Bill

Wow, didn't know that S&W was offering a holster for it.
Just ordered one from S&W for $53. Have black and tan in R or L handed. Appears to be specially made for the .380.

This was in the description..."It features a one way snap on belt loop for easy on and off and precise molding"...I too am ordering a blk RH for myself I currently also use a cheap universal small semi auto in the pants holster that surprisingly fits pretty well that I picked up at a gun show for 10 bucks! The tag says "Taigear www.taigear.com" I went to their site and couldnt find exactly what i have but maybe you can find it else where.
Holster for S&W Bodyguard 380
If you're looking for deep concealment the Bodyguard 380 will fit nicely in your pocket. One of the finest pocket holsters I found is the "Recluse". It has some very nice features, one of which is the trigger guard pad that holds the pistol in place but doesn't inhibit the draw.Take a look at:

I will post observations of the S&W 380 holster as soon as I receive it as I am sure other members will as well.
Cheap and good
Find yourself a Nokia (older model if possible) phone holster. The ones with expanding sides work best. They are ambidextrous, have a positive holding clip for a belt or inside of a boot top, fit the BG like a glove, and if you can find them (clearance and dollar stores mostly) they are dirt cheap.

I've tried Uncle Mike's IWB Size 0 for the BG380, and it is too snug, in my opinion. I does work great for my wife's Kahr P380 though. Go figure.
For IWB, I use a Remora holster for my BG380. Fits great, works great, and the price is right!
It's a good question. I explained how the Remora holster works in the post at the following link.

Actually, I'm glad for the opportunity to do a little more word-of-mouth advertising for the company. Alan makes a great product at a reasonable price, and he's a great guy. He deserves to be successful.
P.S. I have no affiliation with Remora, other than being a very satisifed customer.
